Cross' POV

A flashback started to play in my head...

Okay class, your seat work for today would be based on writing your "greatest fall in life." You would be writing your past or present fall in life.

It could be anything, it could be about your current situation, like financially, or about love...

Everyone was going crazy by then. They were screaming, shouting, and teasing each other.

They were going insane because of this statement.

"Okay class, settle yourselves down. I am going to give you an allotted time of 30 minutes to do this and pass it to me before the bell rings."

My mind was in shambles by now. I had no idea what so ever on what to write in this piece of paper.

I had no idea on what to write because I haven't had any fall in life. It's that simple.

Given that everything has been given to me in just a snap of a finger. I had nothing to write.

Everyone was starting to write their story on the paper but I just sat there still, looking at them one by one intently.

Time flew fast. Our teacher returned to our class and started to collect our works.

I decided to hand mine blank. There was no writing there. This caused my teacher to look at me with a curiosity in her eyes.

Maybe she was asking herself, why? Why did I pass my paper blank.

I proceeded to get my things because it was time to go home, the others were excited. Well, I was too.

But our teacher called for my name.

"Uhmm... Will Mr. Harrison please stay for awhile. I have something to discuss that needs your attention."

Everyone was looking at me intently and they all said the same thing.

"Ohhhh... Someone's in trouble."

I had no thought what so ever of what she's​ going to say.

I just headed to her desk and readied myself of whats to come.

"Mr. Harrison, you are aware that what you have passed has nothing on it. It has no writing or explanation of why you have passed it blank."

I sat there with no reaction.

"Hmmm... Okay, so care to explain why you've passed your paper blank?"

I decided to speak what was on my mind.

"It's simple, I had no experience on this situation be it past or present. So I had nothing to write on that paper."

My teacher went blank for a while. She was as blank as my paper was.

"Okay, so point taken. If ever you feel this though? What would your reaction be? Would it be based on your emotion?"

My mind was in its blank slate, if ever I feel this? Would I feel this? What would I feel?

My mind was full of questions by this time. I can't answer because I haven't felt it before.

"I actually don't have any answer for that. I, uh, don't know what my reaction would be."

My teacher had a smile on her face. A smile that made me feel that I didn't know everything. That I need to work for it to be known.

"See, not everything is given to us that easily. Sometimes we have to work or wait for it to know what our reaction would be to it. Someday you'll meet something or someone that would make you feel your greatest fall in life. For now you'll have to wait for that day to come. Okay?"

What she said bugged me for years. It has haunt me up until this day. But now I could say that not only did my life meet its greatest fall in life. But also did my heart.

Its greatest fall is her. I didn't think of her as the answer to my question years ago. But life does work in mysterious ways. And it chose her as the answer to my question, it was her.

As time stood still for us. I moved closer and closer to where her luscious lips were. I can't stop what fate has in stored for us.

Right when I was starting to go for it. My phone rang, it was the hospital I was working for.

"Dr. Harisson, please come fast. There is a patient here that needs surgery in the leg. The cause of this is firework. We need you ASAP."

"I, uhhh. I'm sorry Ms. Anderson, I have an emergency to attend to. I'm really sorry."

I saw her blushing, she was trying to hide it but I could already see it.

This hasn't come in a good timing. I guess it wasn't the time for this. I guess, I'll have to wait.

"Alliah, you could call me Alliah. I insist."

I was smiling all through out the conversation.

"You could call me Cross, let's keep it casual for now. Okay?"

She was still blushing until the end of the conversation.

"Uh, okay..."

"Come on, I'll take you home before going to the hospital. Alliah..."

She nodded as a response and hid her face in her scarf.
